that's cool man. makes me wanna get into it. ever thought about doing any stop-motion animations?

haha not really sure how to even do that
I like your style! The dinosaur is monstrous!
ty:)
I am disappointed.

j/k :)

Keep on sculpting. I could never do work like that dinosaur in my sculpting classes in HS. The wheel took a lot of my time which went largely unrewarded, haha.
heh its funny I suck at the wheel and making pottery. then again i havent put much effort into it. I mean killer dinosaur>clay pitcher
Wow. Great job. It's pretty difficult to make sculptures. It has always been my weakness in high school art classes. I was pretty good at everything except sculpture.

Post more if u do anything else. I'm very interested to see more of ur stuff.
Here is some more of my stuff. Made the bear 2 years ago senior year. The rock opens up as the point of the project was to make some sort of container. This is a man eating bear tho! notice the skull and bones

the spinosaurus will be done when I go to class on tuesday and I finish painting it and take it home and il post some pics. Really looking foward to going back to school in a week so I can get some good studio time in. haha im very proud of the sculptures cause half the time I was noddin out... which doesnt help your motor skills
 
i'm going to be honest, i really don't like these

did you ever hear the saying if you dont have anything nice to say dont say anything at all?

but fair enough. everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Im only 19.... and have not started taking sculpture classes till this summer. (besides the crap I did in art class in HS) so I dont have many hours under my belt and with practice comes perfect. I so hope nobody thinks this is my lifes work. I still need much more time with sculpture to learn new techniques and ways to improve my form


so is there something specific you dont like about them?

Roger that bang_that_shit. I didn't realize these were sort of early or unpracticed pieces.

i suppose i just get bitter sometimes when everyone here only applauds pieces people show. it seems insincere to me. maybe i shouldn't be looking towards bluelight for real artistic discourse or an artistic community but whatever. i've been here like 7 years ><

I just don't think the figure is that interesting, nor is the dinosaur. I can't see your hand in them, and the subjects are, well, boring, and they are sculpted rather boring as well.

But I'm just some guy on the internet; fucking keep at it. Make pieces that you love making and it will show. These couple pieces are bland.

yea iv just really began sculpting, I still need alot of work. Anyways its more of just a hobby than anything else. No real plans of having a career in art.
 
allright i was outside smoking thinking of this thread.

i'd like to see some more ambition, if you know what I mean. you like sculpting dinosaurs, since that was something in your youth you enjoyed. I can relate to that - the kind of drawings I did when I was a child are influencing me still. but show us you mean it. you say its just a hobby above, bullshit or you wouldn't make a thread about it?

what are you going to college for? art? or is this just an elective.

i said, "fucking keep at it." i shouldn't have. statements like that are condescending. i hate it when people tell me that. of course we are going to keep at it lol? we have to do this.

why is it just this dinosaur sitting on this stand? why isn't the dinosaur destroying shit, glazed in psychedelic colors that the guy sniffing coke is probably remembering.

do it like you mean it, is all i'm saying. why won't we be dissapointed if its just a hobby?

Naw im not going to college for art, hoping to pursue a career in Archaeology/Paleontology. This is just a summer course I took to get some extra credits. It is just a hobby, but I enjoyed my work and I am proud of it so I thought I would share it.

The dinosaur was originally supposed to be knelling over eating something but then his tail would be up in the air, and just the legs and small arms would be holding it up, which was causing to much stress on the legs causing cracks so I scraped that as I needed the tail on the ground for support.... haha and its not glazed yet. Im gonna do that tomorrow.

I dont really know what to say lol, these are some sculptures I made, yes they need work. Practice makes perfect. These are just some things I had fun making. I have no real plans of a future in art.

Most of what you said has a good point, but I think that it can just be a hobby. Nothin' wrong with that mate. I love photography and we post a lot of amateur photography threads in here, but for most of us it's just a hobby. Just because we're super-passionate about something doesn't mean it has to be our career/whole lives. Know what I mean?

yea thats what i was kinda getting it :)

I agree.

And sorry, I was disappointed with these 'sculptures'. If you put it in perspective, realizing that these are your first tries and you did it for the hell of it, it's not that bad I suppose.

i get it.

to be honest, i really don't like any of the photography threads either. its not that i'm a photography snob on bluelight.

i don't like most photography that's described as fine art in general.

actually, i detest photography that's pawned off as fine art. lol.

i like drawing and painting. i suppose i have a bit of snob in me actually :\
